BARBARA HECK EXHORTING PHILIP EMBURY TO PREACH
THE GOSPEL
Philip Embury was for six years a highly esteemed local preacher in Ireland under Mr. Wes-
ley. He preached his last sermon in that country from the deck of the ship on which he with
eleven of his Methodist class emigrated to New York in 1760.. Over these he continued to
exercise a religious care, but respecting the services of public preaching he appears to have
been held in check for a time by his timidity and the difficulties of the new conditions that
confronted him. But under the fervid appeal of his godly cousin. Barbara Heck, he opened
his hired cottage for preaching, and two years later, 1768, he dedicated the first John Street
lifice.
